Personal Injury: Mainly Claimant

About

Provided by Digby Brown LLP

Digby Brown was named Law Firm of the Year in 2019 – the fourth time in five years – and has also won numerous CSR awards. The firm consistently secures more than £100million in damages for clients every year via civil litigation within the All Scotland Personal Injury Court and the Court of Session. Independently verified statistics show the firm consistently achieved, on average, more than three times the pre-litigation offer made by defending insurers. Digby Brown’s practice is split into specialist areas which deal with clients’ claims based on the nature of accident, type of injury or whether the client was injured while living and working in Scotland or abroad. Cases can be funded via a bespoke funding and indemnity package through Digby Brown’s litigation funding company, Compensate, giving clients access to justice while funding all case expenses. The firm recently achieved notable successes for victims of high profile institutional abuse and the families and survivors of the Clutha and bin lorry tragedies. A growing Professional Support function keeps Digby Brown at the forefront of personal injury law. The firm is one of only a small number in Scotland to have a Professional Support Lawyer function, particularly among firms specialising in personal injury litigation. More than 40 solicitors and litigators are ranked with APIL and around half of these are employed with Digby Brown alone - including APIL's President Gordon Dalyell.
